We'll hear about the power and potential of virtual reality, from one of its pioneers. Jaron Lanier is in the studio. He's the author of the new book "Dawn of the New Everything."

Then, Seattle police chief Kathleen O’Toole says she'll step down at the end of the month. We'll talk with former Seattle City Councilmember Kirsten Harris-Talley about what she’d like to see from the next chief.

With all the revelations about sexual harassment and abuse by men in entertainment and journalism, what does that say about the stories they’re telling? We’ll talk with New York Times gender editor Jessica Bennett.

And we'll meet a Seattle doctor studying how racism can harm your health. Dr. Roberto Montenegro of Seattle Children's Hospital stops by to explain.
